   Hi, Ed!  Recently you wrote in a message to Alexander Koryagin:   
      
   EV>  Coffee News is a newsletter found in local restaurants   
      
             Yes, we have it here although it seems to be available only in the   
   suburbs nowadays.  I enjoy reading it when I can.  :-)   
      
      
   EV>  In the October 14, 2024 edition is this:   
      
   EV>  A. A. Milne, the author of Winnie-the-Pooh, didn't invent   
   EV>  the bear's name. His son, Christopher Robin Milne, called   
   EV>  his own teddy bear Winnie after a visit to the London Zoo,   
   EV>  where he saw a bear named for Winnipeg, Manitoba (Canada).   
      
             That is my understanding as well....  :-)
